[edit] Jim's Tasty Freeze
non-notable fast food place. Under 20 googles. Reads like an ad. Delete Ryan Norton T | @ | C 04:51, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete for lack of verifiability. Friday (talk) 14:30, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Easy to verify: the place is located on 509 West Elm Street. You can call them up at (336) 228-8916 (map, reviews). It's there alright, but still not notable. Owen× ☎ 18:14, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, indeed for lack of verifiablity. Yes, we can verify it exists. But we couldn't verify anything about the place that would expand the article beyond a stub, without doing original research. (Calling the place up is, by official policy, not a legitimate way to source a Wikipedia article.) Bunchofgrapes 18:39, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I wasn't sure what Friday wanted to verify—the only claim this "article" makes is that the place has existed since the '60s. Reminds me of an old skit where two government technocrats are standing on the street in front of City Hall arguing over a recent rumour that City Hall was demolished to the ground; being true to their nature, neither would entertain the possibility of turning around to check for themselves.

- Comment The presence of reviews makes it more verifiable, IMO. However there's still nothing verifiable in the article. However, it could be deleted for lack of significance and I would not complain. Friday (talk) 18:50, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Wikipedia is not a fast-food directory. MCB 21:07, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Individual restaurants are rarely notable. --Metropolitan90 03:35, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
